    Just wait until Cooper gets his hands on him and he’ll be throwing low 90’s in no time ?

  • Kanny hitters struck out 18 TIMES TONIGHT Already adopting the franchise philosophy i see

  • Sox brass knew Law was going to the game so they gave him a day off.

Nice start for McClure, 4 innings, 1 unearned run, 2 walks, 7 Ks.

I remember when we were all joking about this but with Kopech, and then it actually happened.

Of course, it was for another reason, but still...

Great to see him back and healthy.

Hot take incoming, but Steele Walker needs to be promoted ASAP.

He may well move up when Robert does.  I doubt they want to keep either player out of CF as a starter right now.

They’ll wait until the all star break. That’s the White Sox way. Especially with guys who need minor league AB’s.

I think they move Walker up sooner than that if he continues to hit well.

I think you’re right on the CF angle, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Robert & Walker in the same OF for a short period of time before Robert gets a bump.

I wonder what we have with Mr. Troutwine. Old for his level, but has shown a great eye at the plate

80 grade name.

 

Heuer has a nice game. 2 innings, no baserunners, 4 k’s, only needed 21 pitches. 

 

I really liked what what I saw from him this spring. I think he’s got a shot.

Man. Cease looks like he would be the best pitcher in the rotation right now. 97 to 98 fastball that he throws for strikes. Drops the curve in as needed. I'd like more of these pitchers please.

He was a little inconsistent with the curve early, but at least he was missing low. By the 5th inning he was really cruising. It was fun to watch.

Ha, I get that you're kind of kidding, but Cease might be different from some of the other hard throwers in that he has good fastball command. There's not much need to have him slow it down, add movement and control it better. He might want some extra movement on the fastball, but the way he was commanding it today I don't think that's necessary.

ZACK BOMB.

I can't even imagine how dramatic the change must be from playing 50% of your games in Birmingham to playing 50% of them in Charlotte. And Collins still managed to get on base 38% of the time in AA. He's gonna be an absolute monster until he's called up.

Scoreless inning with a K & no walks for Alec Hansen. Good to see.

Another 1-2-3 inning for Hansen with a K, please be back to form soon

Heuer a nice line again as well

Cease looking good, please stay healthy

Early call up coming for Collins? He looks great and our catchers are just suck.

I think we see him this year for sure. @Y2Jimmy0, another big Collins fan, is probably more informed as to where he's at defensively but I'd have to assume he's at least good enough to 1B/DH for us and catch some games as a 2nd catcher this season. We'd have to trade Alonso though, or make him the primary catcher

Here's a video of the Collins ?

 

 

Collins obliterated that one. He's going to crush lousy offspeed pitches like that.  

Collins and Robert showing the power early on is great to see.

Wow that was a late game!
